The originals were slightly different dimensions than the ones commonly
available today.  In the past, I was able to "get away" with using hardware
store items, but the last time I tried it, the nut would just slip off the
threads when I tried to tighten it.

If you can find an original nut, it might be able to clamp down on the
hardware store olive; I didn't try that.  But I won't be surprised if it
works out like the fuel pump, it almost works but not quite.
